Three’s a Crowdypants

Did you know that a group of otters is called a romp? And a group of vultures is a wake? You might. You just might. I mean, you knew that a group of crows is called a murder, right? But did you know that a group of squid is a squad? That’s right, a squad of squid!

A group of zebras is called a dazzle. Easy to understand, right? A group of flying swans is a wedge. Some aren’t so easy. A group of turtle doves is called a pitying. A gerund? Really? Others like this include the chickens, called a chattering, and ducks, called a paddling.

A group of thrushes are called a mutation. Wha??? A group of ferrets are called a business. That one makes sense. But a group of gnus are called an implausibility. Huh?

Foxes: a skulk. Emus: a mob. Flamingoes: a flamboyance (oh come on, is this alliteration for giggles or what?)
